Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart Poet Light Verse

O' Pardons Canada

Surfing new releases
On the poetry site
When up popped a new ad
To my sheer delight!
From "Pardons Canada"
All flashy and red
Replete with maple leafs...
Sold! On I read.

"Need a Canadian pardon?"

Rubbing my eyes,
Have I got the whole story?
We're selling a rebrand;
Pardon the new "sorry".
